R.E.M. - Final Straw: chords

Dm                          C         Dm
As I raise my head to broadcast my objection
                         C                Dm
As your latest triumph draws the final straw
                     C           Dm
Who died and lifted you up to perfection?
                     C                Dm
And what silenced me is written into law.

Chorus:
   C                                     Dm
I can't believe where circumstance has thrown me
       C             Dm
And I turn my head away
      C                             Dm
If I look I'm not sure that I could face you.
      Am          C          Dm
Not again. not today. not today.

If hatred makes a play on me tomorrow
And forgiveness takes a back seat to revenge
There's a hurt down deep that has not been corrected
There's a voice in me that says you will not win

Chorus:
And if I ignore the voice inside
Raise a half glass to my home
But it's there that I am most afraid
And forgetting doesn't hold. it doesn't hold

      F
Now I don't believe and I never did
      Dm
That two wrongs make a right.
        F
If the world were filled with the likes of you
         Dm
Then I'm putting up a fight.
                  F
I'm putting up a fight
              Dm             Am             C   Dm
Putting up a fight. make it right. make it right.

Now love cannot be called into question
Forgiveness is the only hope I hold
And love- love will be my strongest weapon
I do believe that I am not alone

Chorus:
For this fear will not destroy me
And the tears that have been shed
It's knowing now where I am weakest
And the voice in my head. in my head
Then I raise my voice up higher
And I look you in the eye
And I offer love with one condition
With conviction, tell me why. Tell me why.

         Am
Tell me why.
                C
Look me in the eye.
          Dm
Tell me why.
